Summary:

Please note: the RFI submission deadline has been extended to August 12, 2013.

The Fuel Cell Technologies Office is a key component of the Department of Energy's Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy (EERE) portfolio. EERE seeks to provide clean, safe, secure, affordable, and reliable energy from diverse domestic resources, along with the benefits of increased energy security and reduced criteria pollutants and greenhouse gas emissions. The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) is issuing a Request for Information (RFI) seeking input from stakeholders on the use of Rotating Disk Electrode (RDE) experiments and best practices for experimental conditions for characterization of the activity and durability of Proton Exchange Membrane Fuel Cell (PEMFC) electrocatalysts. THIS RFI IS NOT A FUNDING OPPORTUNITY ANNOUNCEMENT (FOA); THEREFORE, DOE IS NOT ACCEPTING APPLICATIONS.
